Ladies and Gentleman, Oct 9th marks the night that all fight fans should take a little time out for. Those in Melbourne should take a few hours away from watching 'Seinfeld' on FOX; or "Sponge me Down, you irresistable midget" on the porn channel... Oct 9th at the MCG. Australian National Boxing Hall of Fame night of the year. Pay a few dollars and share an evening with the greatest Aussie fighter in HISTORY.. Lionel Rose, the man whose efforts through the late 1960's captured the hearts of ALL Australians shall be elevated to LEGEND status. This will more than likely be the last time fans have the chance to meet and greet this Aboriginal warrior in the public arena. You all know his value.. cough up a tiny amount in return for a night to share with him. :happy :happy :happy KOSTYA TSZYU WALLY CARR BILLY MALES ROCKY GATTELARI TONY MADIGAN ERN MC QUILLAN MICKEY MILLER MERV BLANDON TIM HEGARTY JIMMY CLABBY These fighters, hero's of Australian boxing, are all inductees this year.

I wish to all **** that I could go.....:blood Lionel was the first Boxer that I fully supported..... I remember huddling around the radio with my family when he destroyed Gattelari for the Australian Title...:happy:happy And then this young Aboriginal kid went into the Lion's Den did the impossible...and won the "REAL" World Title from a fighter the Jap's thought was a God.... Fighting Harada. We couldn't watch it here in Australia.... But I rode every punch thrown and cheered myself hoarse as we listened. AHHH..... Good times..... GREAT times
I really should have got my **** together when I knew this was coming...would have been great to go to.
